We may have a new default battery saving machanism in Android 12 and above https://www.xda-developers.com/android-12-background-app-limitations-major-headache/

"In Android 12, though, it was discovered that a mechanism to monitor forked child processes started by apps and kills them if they consume too much CPU if the app is in the background (via Mishaal Rahman) was introduced. It also limits the number of child processes that parent processes can spawn to 32, which greatly limits the number of operations an app can complete in the background. This 32 child process limit is actually across the entire system, not just per app, meaning that other apps with child processes will contribute to that limit as well."
